This property was as advertised, actually better than advertised. I was unsure if there was a view of the ocean from the lanai, and I can confirm indeed there is a lovely view. You will hear the pounding surf at night. As stated, there is no AC, but I found the home to be comfortable at all times without it. The kitchen is well appointed. I loved the location, which is quiet and somewhat isolated from the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist areas further north. Indeed, you are a good 25-30 minutes away from any kind of restaurant or civilization. The beach was quite turbulent most of the time I was here, so don't come expecting clear still waters. That said, Pebbes Beach is a sight to behold, unlike any other beach I have seen bounded by primordial lava rock. Make sure you find the path to the right that leads to more beach front. I enjoyed walking down from the house to the beach to watch the sun set every night. As others have noted, the road to/from the property will probably be the steepest road most people will encounter in their lives (San Franciscans exempt), but it's still perfectly safe and smooth in even a basic rental car. Just go slow. I look forward to returning to this property again in the future.
